SMALLER GROUPS = LARGER EXPERIENCES

We want you explore the magic of the Northern Light and the Arctic in an intimate and private way. We only travel with small groups with maximum 6 people. This way we make sure you get the grandest and also most authentic experiences taking in the light and nature in calm, quiet surroundings.
To get the best experience of the Northern Light you will need to get away from light pollution from cities and roads. Often northern light hot spots on land are filled with buses and crowded with people. When traveling by a sailboat we’ll have the best conditions as we can get far away from these factors as we bring our home with us and are not depended on time, distances or place. In addition to exploring the breathtaking northern light you will in the period from October until February see that the fjords around Tromsø is filled Orcas and Humpback whales feeder on Herring.
